You see the question, now give your thoughts...

What is your opinion on this 'documentary',

is it,

"The Hilarious Antics of Herr Hitler, HEIL!"? or quite the opposite?

Your thoughts please.

It's a classic documentary, it's a legend really. I think it's fine, and wasn't that much of propaganda but it was "fun to watch," I'd have to say. I think it's fine, and who cares if it's propaganda, World War Two is over and Hitler is Dead.

Did you know that the medal awarding ceremony at the end of "Star Wars: A New Hope" is a shot-for-shot recreation of the ceremony in "Triumph of the Will"?

I read that in Maxim. I haven't seen "Triumph...", so I can't say for sure. Can anyone verify this?

just download it, and if you can stand to watch it, it is quite a masterpiece.

A Documentary of Nazi Germany and Hitler's campaign and rise to power, at least I think. I saw it in high school.
